We made our way back up to Syracuse this weekend for homecoming weekend. And had a really good time up there!
Again, we took Friday off of work so we didn't have to worry about getting up there too late, and being too tired from that. We got up Friday, Mark took care of the lawn, I ran a couple errands...then we went and got the car and made our way to the gym. We got on the road around 11:45, and think we made it up to Syracuse at like 6:45, a 7 hour drive. We didn't have any of the rain like we did last weekend, but we did get caught up in a little bit of traffic where they had them down to one lane. We checked into the hotel, we stayed at the Renaissance (the round hotel) this time. Ashley came into town as well this weekend, so they all picked us up at the hotel so we could all go to dinner together. We went to an Italian restaurant off of Erie Blvd. and had some yummy food. After dinner we went back to the
Genesee Inn to get Allison's car, and Ashley had called a 'family meeting' for something very important. Here she had crocheted a baby blanket for our
un-conceived child. I guess Mark & I need to have a baby now so we can put it to use. But she did a really good job with it, and will come in handy one of these days. Lets see, after that we went back to Allison's apartment for a bit...Ashley thought her toilet was disgusting so here Ashley was cleaning her toilet...

And the girls decided to do my hair & make-up for the night. They kept saying how I looked pretty, and then you ask Mark what he thought and he said I looked scary.

Anyways, we eventually made our way down to
Faegan's for the evening. Had a real good time there. Ashley was out with us, which meant we were all doing shots. Had a couple of beers, and I think I did 2 shots. Erica & Jason met up with us there, as well as a couple of Allison's friends. Ashley wanted to find someone to make-out with...But she was unsuccessful. She was talking with 2 of Allison's friends, but was calling them babies b/c they were too young for her.

Anthony came down to
Faegan's as well.
Definitely feeling pretty good by the end of the night, which of course we ended it with Pita Pit.
Saturday morning we got up...Slow moving morning but we eventually got ready and checked out of the hotel. Went up to Marshall Street and got lunch at
Faegan's with Ca, Jason, Megan & her husband Glenn. Very good to get some food in me, was feeling much better after lunch. After Varsity we wandered up to the quad, and then went up to Allison's for an hour since we had extra time to kill. Made our way back down to the q
uad - the weather was gorgeous. I couldn't believe we were in Syracuse!

Went to the game--Syracuse actually won a game!! Too bad it was only Northeastern that we beat, but I'll still take a win. Was
definitely nice this weekend to be able to be cheering them on, and get excited when they actually scored some!

After the game Mark & I walked back down to the hotel to get our car and spent the rest of the night at Allison's. We ordered Papa John's for dinner...sang Happy Birthday to mom...

played some beer pong...ate a bunch of gummy bears soaked in vodka...played some asshole at the end of the night....

Allison then proceeds to drop her phone in the toilet, and stick her hand in it to rescue it...then come to find out the phone doesn't work...decides to use a hair dryer to try to dry it out...manages to blow a fuse...Mark's walking around her apartment with a cookie monster flashlight trying to find the fuse box...GOOD TIMES!!!

Sunday morning we got up bright and early and hit the road for our 7 1/2 hour drive home. Napped a little in the car...Didn't do a whole lot once we got home. We were both pretty tired so we pretty much spent it on the couch watching TV.
